Motion of a Robot Mower with Directional Control

  • Published:
Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

The stability of robot-mower motion in a specific direction is considered. The direction is regulated by means of an angular sensor and a programmable controller adjusting the motor power at one of the two drive wheels. For mower motion over a flat surface, the maximum control ratio in the drive at each of those wheels depends on the direction of initial chassis rotation.
